In reference to reports Of the illness OF
President Cleveland, Senator Vest OF NO.,
says: There are some who would like to
describe the president as looking haggard
and all torn up physically, but such is not
the case. He has acute rheumatism in a
mild way, and there is no danger whatever,
as In Gen. Logan's case. The truth is, the
president is overworked. He does twice or
three times as much work az an ordinary
individual, and how can he hold out at
such rate? He looks very we'll and is
quite heshy. He does not take enough ex.
ercise, and the immense amount of work he
does requires wholesome outotdoor walks
to counterfeit the sendentary effect.

company 3es, 900 acres which had been
patented to the latter, and in ad'
ern Pacific to $4,000 acres more,
which had been patented to it, but
which were claimed by the Manitoba. Be-
side the 39s,OO0 acres thus specifically
awarded to the Northern Pacific by the de-
crees mentioned, about 1896 acres, be-
longing to the same classes, remain unpat-
ented to either party. SO that the whole
quantity OF the disputed lands, which the
decision Of the circuit court gives to the
Northern Pacific, is in the neighbour Of
